Check the specifications on that trailer. They have a small motorcycle specific one that won't fit some dressers. The ones being talked about here are the 5x9 utility trailer drop gate with the check in the front. I had this confusion happen more than once trying to rent one in the past.
This one has a max cargo weight limit of 950 lbs. They are built specifically for motorcycles with the drop gate and wheel chock. But they are only 3.9 feet wide with low side walls to get the trailer weight down. I've used them before and they tow very nice.
Nice job, that bike was locked down solid! I have also used the U-Haul trailers, as others have said for $15 a day they are pretty nice. I learned a lot about tying them down on this thread, I really didn't know the techniques and next time I will do it with a bit more confidence that it will stay put! Thanks everyone for all the advice!
nice trailer dude. they do come in very handy. I can trailer my bike or garden tractor. or also huntin gear and 4 wheeler. they do come in very handy especially if ya break down ,[ Harleys do that ya know just from time to time] but don't tell anyone .
I like what you said bout everyone needs one whether they think they need a trailer or not. its one of those things that is gr8 to have especially when its emergency time and your broke down summers.[ some wheres]. also like your tag line FREEDOM IS NOT FREE!!
NICE! BUT JUST A SUGGESTION, DONT TIE ON TO THE BARS. THEY VIBRATE AND WILL POSSIBLY LOOSEN UP THE STRAPS. BETTER TO TIE TO FRAME OR TRIPLE TREES OR LOWERS. ANYTHING BUT THE HANDLEBARS. BE SAFE,AND, WATCH FOR CAGERSW/ IDIOTS ON CELLS[ SPECIAL PET PEEVE OF MINE] o sorry 4 caps!
Question for the OP and anyone else who may know, did those eyes that mount to the tank fittings come with heavier/harder bolts, or are the factory bolts adequate for the added job?

I have the Kury ones that mount where the driving lights mount and they came with longer bolts. I don't know if they are any heftier but they are longer to accommodate the extra thickness of the bracket.

I don't have first hand knowledge, but from looking at the various parts diagrams it looks like the HD kit replaces the:
10900005 --> double sided stud
with
3140 --> Screw, hex socket, button head, 5/16-18 x 38.1 mm (1.50 in) long (4)
